The Southside SPCA runs several adoption programs. The most successful is “Homebound Hounds,” which saves over a thousand puppies from Southside Virginia each year while filling the need for mixed breed puppies in New England. Twice a month,, Southside SPCA transports approximately 30-45 puppies to Massachusetts for adoption.
About Our Northern Partner
Founded July 2001 with Animal Shelter Inc. in Sterling, MA, the Homebound Hounds program is a Death Row Puppy Rescue Mission rescuing and re-homing puppies from southside Virginia. Since its inception, Southside SPCA has rescued over 14,000 puppies (and the occasional kitten) through this program. Animal Shelter, Inc. in Sterling, MA assists Southside SPCA with the cost for immunizations and transportation, and finds loving homes for these puppies.
These puppies have been rescued from Animal Controls in one of 12 Virginia counties, or have been abandoned or left by their owners at the Southside SPCA (in Meherrin, VA) or one of our associate shelters.
